My name is April Sunshine. It really is! My parents were stoners. I was born in '77. That explains SO MUCH!
I work from home full time and take care of my two kids. I have the most beautiful 18-month old baby girl in the world (she's the cutie pie in the picture) and a handsome 8 year old boy genius whom I home school. My husband is everything I ever wanted in a husband minus the million dollar bank account, but I'll live! I really have a great life. Some might find it boring, but I enjoy it so much that I don't even want to go to sleep at night. Thus, I am a ZOMBIE! And even better... I am a CRAFT ZOMBIE. I love to make jewelry, sew, and a million other things. It is my passion. After death, I am hoping there really is a heaven and heaven is filled with sewing machines, polymer clay, beads, and energy drinks.

Telling The Truth
